【题目】 A drop in tourism during the coronavirus crisis is making it more difficult for some organizations to protect 1 (threaten) wildlife in Africa. Wildlife 2 (official) fear poaching (偷猎) activity will rise because the collapse of the travel industry leaves less money for guarding animals.

African rhinos have long been 3 threat from poachers who kill them for their horns. The illegal trade is fueled by the belief, in some cultures, 4 the horns have medicinal value which has not been proven by science.

The number of black rhinos in Africa 5 (increase) slowly. But a report in March by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) said it still considered the animals “critically endangered”. In part, it credits the comeback of the rhinos to effective law enforcement. 6, the enforcement measures are very

costly. The organization spends about $10,000 each year for every rhino to pay for the protection.

The IUCN expects to lose $3 to $ 4 million this year and the 7 (lose) severely limits the group’s ability 8 (protect) the rhinos. Wildlife activists across Africa are now waiting to see how poachers will react to the current situation, and whether more rare wildlife 9 (kill).

The IUCN said the population of black rhinos grew at a 10 (year) rate of 2.5 percent between 2012 and 2018. Now, there are more than 5,600 animals. That growth was predicted to continue over the next five years, the environmental group said.

【题目】 A man in northwest Spain, 54, died after being stung by a “ murder hornet (大黄蜂)”, according to a report. The man from Villestro in Galicia was stung in the eyebrow by an Asian giant hornet while tending to a nest close to a beehive he owned. The deadly insects from Asia were first spotted last weekend in Washington State. Such reports have caused a national panic that may lead to more “needless” damage to those essential insect populations, the experts warned. “Millions and millions of innocent native insects are going to die as a result of this,” Dr. Doug Yanega, a professor at the University of California, Riverside, told the Los Angeles Times. “People in China, Korea and Japan have lived side by side with these hornets for hundreds of years and it has not caused the collapse of human society there. My colleagues in Japan, China and Korea are just rolling their eyes in disbelief at what kind of snowflakes we are.”

Following the initial hornet sightings on May 2, the Washington State Department of Agriculture issued instructions on how to trap the hornets, stressing that so far, the hornets have been sighted only within the state. “There are no known sightings of Asian giant hornets anywhere else in the United States and trapping for them there will likely do more harm than good. PLEASE DO NOT TRAP FOR ASIAN GIANT HORNETS IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE OF WASHINGTON STATE,” the warning read. The concern for bees has originated from their role in the general ecosystem: Bees are responsible for pollinating (授粉) approximately 75 percent of the fruits, nuts and vegetables grown in the United States, according to the U. S. Geological

Numerous bug experts said that what they call “murder hornet” reminds them of the 1970s public when Africanized honeybees, nicknamed “killer bees”, started moving north from South America. However, they just kill people in rare situations.

1What does the underlined word “snowflakes” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A.People favoring cold weather.

B.People with a habit of rolling eyes.

C.Someone easily getting mad or offended.

D.Small pieces of frozen water falling from the sky.

2Why does trapping hornets do more harm than good?

A.Because these insects seldom kill people.

B.Because insects do harm to the general ecosystem.

C.Because they are seen only in Washington state.

D.Because most plants in America depend on bees to grow.

3What is the purpose of writing the text?

A.To teach the public ways to trap hornets.

B.To warn the public to stay away from hornets.

C.To appeal to people to live in harmony with hornets.

D.To remind people of the past killing cases by hornets.

4Where is the text most likely from?

A.An essay.B.A news report.

C.A tourist brochure.D.A geography textbook.

【题目】 Ralph Waldo Emerson once quoted that “Nothing great can ever be achieved without enthusiasm.” I have a lot of enthusiasm. This is Northlandz in Flemington, New Jersey. Northlandz is the world’s largest model railroad. Well I guess, you know, everybody has a passion for something, my thing was trains.

I had trains around the Christmas tree as a kid. Wherever I lived I was planning track plans and then over 18 years I added five basements onto the house. And from that I got fairly good at making mountains and bridges and design work and we decided to give it to the world so we tore it all down, bought this land and built Northlandz.

Any given day we run between 85 and 90 trains. Here are some of the details in Northlandz inside—about 40,000 feet of track, and about 4,000 buildings over 400 bridges. Many of the mountains in here are three and a half stories high. Most things in here are scratch built. Underneath the entire superstructure there’s enough lumber to build about 42 large houses. It takes a few hours to go through for the average person to see everything.

We went millions into debt to build this place. Everybody thought we were nuts. The only one that believed in what I wanted to do was my wife and she was totally with me on this big time. It’s an artistic effort. It’s a gift to the world of what I can do and it makes a lot of people happy.
